covid updates with me
5 years ago
so its been a minute since I've made a journal or any updates, and I sincerely apologize for that. I am trying my best to get art out to you guys at a consistent pace but ironically I have been working twice as much during this whole pandemic. I work at petsmart and it considered an essential business so we've been staying open despite everything and we have SO MANY people coming in and half of them are just fucking around because they're bored like... and to make it worse I'm literally getting super sick! don't think it's corona but you know I don't want to have a fucking cold and be more susceptible to this virus and have to be around people who may have it because they can't stand to stay home for a couple weeks. I literally feel like I'm being run into the ground, and I'm in so much pain physically and mentally that I just want to give up honestly. I'm working so many hours in a dangerous environment and my paycheck can't even cover bills and food... I'm so disheartened and sad and honestly my life was already bad before all of this, but everything just keeps getting worse. I hope you all are staying safe and practicing proper safety practices for all this. please respect people who have to work at this time, especially low income individuals like myself who are being tossed around by corporate like we're replaceable.
But for real I've been working SO much, I'm fortunate to have a good team that makes going to work worth it. I basically go home, zone out until bed, wake up and go to work.
What astounds me is people still want to come in and hold animals....
or buy them.....
like I had a lady come in and tell me she just got laid off, then bought two guinea pigs and I JUST......don't understand!
but hey, hang in there, we're all in this together!
